Hi, I'm Volkan Doğan 👋

Computer Vision Engineer | Deep Learning | Edge AI

As a Computer Vision Engineer with 8+ years of experience, I specialize in building real-time embedded systems using image processing and deep learning. My expertise covers the entire AI model development lifecycle—from design and training to optimization and deployment across diverse hardware platforms. I am primarily focused on delivering optimized, resource-efficient solutions for embedded and edge devices. My practical experience includes achieving massive model size reductions (up to 95%) for production systems and writing and filing a US patent application in Multi-Camera Synchronization and Human Pose Estimation.

This page serves as a hub for my professional journey, skills, and contributions to the field. Feel free to use the interactive chat below to learn more!
